Melody Lee

If only I heeded the warnings before,
That prophets had made me see.
But I needed to heal the wounds I wore
By her, my Love, Melody Lee.
I would hold her in my arms out of harms way
From woes that rose at her and me.

Unimaginable was the way
That prophets had made me see.
They were sounds that bounded my heart for my Love,
Made by my Melody Lee.
And no one could hear the soft whispers she gave
To me and only me.

The truth was given from the time before
That prophets had made me see.
The words they had said were so chilling
They'd frozen my Melody Lee.
The thought had left me in dismay;
My Love had cheated on me.
Burned inside my mind was the image
That prophets had made me see.

Yet no one could hear the soft whispers she gave
Men who were other then me.
There were now words against whom I adore
That prophets had made me see.
The relentless skies were hunting in gray,
And chilling my willing Melody Lee.

But I trusted much more in my love for my Love.
I just wanted her melody;
The sweet song of her melody.
I wanted it more when I saw her above.
I ran to her just in time to see
A bang that rang of a magnum forty-four,
That fell my falling Melody Lee.

So in the spring, the flowers and sunshine will bring
Me memories of Melody Lee.
And the fall has never forgotten to recall
The warmth I shared with Melody Lee.
With nothing left to say, all I can do is pray
That my mind will find forever her voice will stay.
But the image I always see
Are lies the prophets had made me see.

Simply Put

One Look
All it took,
One glance
You had your chance

One Look
All it took,
One smile
Every once in a while.

One simple action
caused a crazy,
chain reaction
You caused me to,
Fall so fast for you

Simply put you only said
one little word
that now sticks in my head
As i passed you by
all you did was
simply wave
and simply say 'Hi.'

just wrote it. i think its wicked cute. but i know it wont win.. lol

Loveless Night

Here I lay alone in my room,
Waiting to reach my lonely doom.
Wondering when it’ll finally arrive,
Then death can take me in it’s strive.

You left me; you said it’s over,
How can it be that you love her?
I thought I was special, but I’m wrong,
Did you even like me all along?

I remember when you told me you loved me,
Those three words made me so happy.
Held me in your arms and protected my heart,
Told me you loved me, from the start.

Well then, baby, why’d you leave?
As I lay here, wiping the tears on my sleeve.
It’s not fair you left me for my friend,
So, baby, this is where the story ends.

Another loveless night, thought they were gone,
But the lord knows that I’m always wrong.
Well, baby, you can have her, though I’ll miss you.
Someday, I hope, that you will miss me too.

Yes another loveless night, here I lay alone,
You broke my heart and cast into stone.
I’ll be fine, but I love you, but I will not cry.
Have fun with my friend, your girlfriend…

I guess this is…goodbye.

~*Who Cares?*~

I like what i'm seeing people thx and keep em coming :)

Like the Stars

I can't stop thinking about you
Like your with me all the time
First thought I have in the morning
Last thought I have at night

Everything reminds me of you
It all ties in somehow
Doesn't matter if it relates
A place with me it's found

I can live an eternity
Off a moment with you
It stays with me for forever
Like the stars stay with the moon

And if I were the darkened sky
Then you would be those stars
You shine for me and give such light
Upon a heart once dark

You'll never know all you have done
How you have lit my world
Because I'm still anonymous
Just your friend, just a girl

By: Charisma*
So hard to choose because I have so many. Hope you like it! Good job Bryan...just wanted to say I loved it!

The Love That Stars Resisted
By : Twisted Heart

We've come full circle, you and I
Upon the shadowed moon
We've fought the battle of our lives
To the beat of different tunes.

We've found a comfort in ourselves
That only we alone can see
And tarried much too long beside
The ocean of our broken dreams.

Our thoughts have lingered in the past
Forever lost inside our minds
Our souls have lost the will to fight
Or maybe, we don't have the time.

Somewhere along the path that lead us
Strangers, we, have now become
Among the heartaches that have fed us
We've nurtured pain like we did our young.

We've sipped the wine of bitterness
Until our lives have lost the hold
Among the ache of life's unkindness
We've wrestled down our broken souls.

Now here we stand, upon the brink
And though our hearts persisted
We face the anger and the pain
Of the love that stars resisted.

Xx Three xX

I wonder where we'll be three hours from now...
Will we be sharing a sneaky kiss?
Just thankful the other one exists?
Will we still be in a state of bliss?

I wonder where we'll be three days from now...
Will we still be togther attached as one?
Still messing around and still having fun?
Will our love have only really begun?

I wonder where we'll be three weeks from now...
Will we still be joined togther at the hip?
And helping each other in life when we trip?
Will you still cause my heart a beat to skip?

I wonder where we'll be three months from now...
Will we still be walking hand in hand?
And drawn a heart upon the sand?
Will it all go exactly as we planned?

I wonder where we'll be three years from now...
Will our wedding have finally gone through?
Our lives beginning a path that's new?
Will we still be stuck together like glue?

I know we will Marcus cos this love is true...
And you know for a fact, i'll always love you ©

From Night To Day

You were my dawning light
What turned my night to day
You wakened me in the morning
You made the darkness go away

My shadows began to dispel
One by one they left my side
When I had you I was happy
Nothing could bring me to cry

The warmth of you're aura
Was enough to make me smile
I would give my life for you
I would walk a thousand miles

Then you're light that you had
The one that gave me day
Had started burning out
Slowly it began to fade

You're flame flickers
Steadily it begins to die
The heavens darken
Radiance fades from your eye

Soon I would be watching painfully
As the night sky settled above the trees
I would watch the moon rise once more
And witness you're sun set on me©

My Only One

Light the candles of our heart
For love alone shines throughout
The melodies inside our words
Our love will never be without
-The tenderness
-The dreamy eyes
That golden tinsel swung
Around the setting skies

I give you willingly darling
the treasure I have kept
Locked inside your name only
Where it's beauty have slept
My love for you
My smothering kiss
All and all, just for one man
The only man that truly exists

Place your jewels on my lips
Say words, say you love me
For who I am and what I do
Say you'll remember for eternity
I only long of you
With deep passion
With fiery longing
With never neverending...

Once My Life, Twice My Angel

Another moonlit coffee mug
Lay in my hands of doubt
Drinking up your memory,
To water down this droubt.

Moving on without you,
Is testing me too much.
Multiple choice is harder,
When letters are left untouched.

I write you all the time you know,
Blowing kisses, unreceived
Constantly wishing your shadow,
Would return home, safe to me.

This house echoes your voice at night
And I hear whispers when I wake,
I find myself still searching for,
The smile I could make.

These hands, they feel as empty
As my lonely soul inside.
And though you're gone, my love for you
Was never born to hide.

can't wait to see results!

The Sand Of My Hour-Glass
Bryan

I sit here now and let the time pass,
and count the sand in my hour-glass.
Time goes on, nothing left for me to do,
but sit here lonely just thinking of you.
I stare at the fire burning in this fireplace,
the flames dance with the outline of your face.
The warmth from it, like when you held me,
but it fades away into another memory.
I cant figure out why this pain is still here,
i've shed too many tears, faced all my fears.
Its not that easy holding in this pain,
to keep me from finally going insane.
You didnt mean it, I know you didnt try,
to break my heart and leave it here to die.
As fast as it came, you took it away,
now i pay for it each and every day.
I will wait, even if it takes eternity,
for you to see what you really mean to me.
